Ever since I can remember, I've hated---loathed---cartoon characters speaking in another character's voice, or doing an apt impression of another character. When I was a kid, I'd sometimes run out of the room with my hands over my ears because it drove me up the wall (there was an episode of Rescue Rangers that felt like nails on a chalkboard for me). I have no idea why this is, except that it's maybe a remnant of my OCD.

It's horse time

When rewatching Newbie Dash for my Season 6 impressions, I saw this at around the 3:15 mark. I somehow don't think those numbers in the top-left corner are supposed to be there. Nobody else seems to have noticed it from what I've seen.

Warning Spoilers

Was the "moral message" of this story bullying is OK? What kind of message is that?!

If I was Rainbow Dash I would quit the Wonderbolts if they treated me like that. Someone gotta write a story where exactly that happens. She rage quits, yells at them and goes off in a big rant, then slams the door on them sort of thing.

Spoilers below the cut!

So the new episode was...yeah, I have a lot of conflicting feelings on the episode.

Let me give some background.

Since the synopsis for the episode was released on EQD, Lancelot (my eyes and ears in the fandom news) and I have been fearing the worst. We both expressed concerns of it not being serious enough and too...childish, which feels really stupid when you watch a kid's show.

0:10 The otaku part of me can't help but imagine Scoots saying "Senpai notice me!"

0:17 I love how the Rainbow Dash Stalker Club was not a one off thing.

You know what's bullshit? When aged, grown-up men (and women) get assblasted and aggro'd over a cartoon meant for those who are still some years away from reaching puberty. When they, the self-declared "true fans" of the show, seem to think that they know what's best for the show and the audience it was specifically written for. I can say that "it's a show for little girls" and "it wasn't made for you" until I'm blue in the face, but somehow, it feels like a wasted effort. Nobody ever

Rainbow finally realizes her dream. Time to soar high or crash and burn.

Ah, the Wonderbolts. They don’t have a very good track record, do they? They were introduced as Equestria’s best fliers, but it seems like every season has an episode dedicated to making them look bad.

To start with, I’m impressed. Not a minute in and I found myself overwhelmed with such a sense of pride I almost couldn’t stop the tears from flowing. I was honestly shocked, that a character I’d hated in the beginning had grown so much that I was actually proud of her.
